Nonna's Lasagna: 9/10 Tucked on a corner in the Columbia Heights neighborhood, CapaTosta is home to some delicious italian inspired food. It's small but warm atmosphere is perfect for a girls night, dinner with family, & more! Their dishes are homemade with locally grown ingredients which makes way for some great food. The service was kind & accommodating. She was able to give us great recommendations and brought everything out quick. I highly recommend stopping by this cute little spot for some great food, service, & cocktails!
Cute Italian joint with small + fresh selections, solid + strong drinks, pleasing ambiance (upstairs), and friendly staff, but it comes with a high price point. The food experience was based on the calamari, veal tortellini, + lobster ravioli with vodka bisque, paired with Tony's Negroni. What I loved about the experience was that upon entering we saw the main floor was booked (reservations recommended), but we were given an option of the bar or we could head upstairs and choose a seat. We walked upstairs and the vibe was open and pleasantly appealing with low violet lighting. It was definitely more of a relaxed vibe than the crowded and chatty downstairs, and what you prefer will depend on your own personal preference since both were appealing in different ways. The menu is small, so ensure you look before going. The table bread, I have to say, was nothing to note on. It was basically a thin french bread sliced into very small slivers. The calamari sharing plate was pricey at $18, however TOTALLY worth it. It may have been the largest calamari plate I've ever had. It was perfectly breaded and crispy. Tortillini has never been my thing, so I'll say it was alright, but wouldn't make me order tortellini more in the future. I initially wanted the Chicken Marsala, but they were out, so I went with the crab and lobster ravioli, which ended up being full of flavor, very fresh and satisfying. The vodka bisque it was plated in was also super tasty, you could have definitely dipped in some bread to savor it. I literally ate the whole thing it was so good. The drinks were DC-style cocktail pricey at $18, but they were also delicious and strong. Overall experience was pleasant, and it would be perfect for a casual date-night. I would go back to try more of the sharing plates, particularly the mussels which we didn't get, and while the drinks were a bit expensive, I'd be down for more.
If you love Italian in an accessibly classy neighborhood spot, make a reservation at Capa Tosta in Pleasant Plains. My friend and I made last minute reservations for 7:45 p.m. on a Wednesday evening for dinner and drinks. We left impressed. Here's why. 1) Food: The menu is divided between starts, mains, and a surprisingly large dessert menu. My friend ordered the bolognese and I the chicken parm. We both really enjoyed our meals. The chicken parm is HUGE! It's a large thin cut of chicken on top of pasta. The pasta came with vodka sauce, which I don't usually like, but loved this one. It even outshined the chicken, which was also great. To start, complimentary warm bread came out. The oil and balsamic vinegar on the table went well with it. 2) Drinks: Italian drinks skew more bitter, but as a sweet drinker, I enjoyed the "Cali" with vodka, elderflower, lime, processo, and lemon peel. My friend really enjoyed the negroni. 3) Service: It was attentive and on point. They left us alone while taking care of our every need at the same time. 4) Space: It's a small space with a dining room, a bar, and an outdoor patio. Because it's more intimate, it makes for a great date spot. 5) Neighborhood: There's a lot to walk to in this neighborhood from restaurants in Park View to bars in Columbia Heights. We found street parking a few blocks from the restaurant.
Micro Review Ordered delivery - dish still looked great! Ordered the pumpkin ravioli since its fall vibes. I don't enjoyed the filling and thought the pine nuts added a fullness to the sauce. One order of ravioli may be enough for a meal, but I'd recommend an appetizer to augment it if you're really hungry.
Capa Tosta is a casual Italian restaurant in Columbia Heights. It's a pretty simple menu with all the staples ravioli, lasagna, chicken parm etc. Our server was very nice and gave great recommendations. The food and drinks also come out very quickly. I had the lobster and crab ravioli, espresso martini and dio mio.
My wife is a frequent partner on my dining adventures, but she leaves the Yelp review writing to me. She'll often share her opinions on a place, but for this dining experience she insisted that I give it 5 stars and she was 100% correct! The dining area of this place has a great vibe - it's small and intimate without feeling crowded. They have a great selection of cocktails - I had the limoncello spritz and it was really good. The others in our group enjoyed their cocktails, too. For my entree, I got the Lobster and Crab Ravioli and it was quite tasty, The bisque sauce was very unique. My daughter got the Rigatoni Alla Vodka and loved it. I had a taste of it and it was delicious. As for my wife, she got the Bolognese. She is a big fan of Bolognese and gets it at many different places we visit and she says this was the best, by far!
Cute spot with yummy Italian food. Had nice service and food came out very quickly. Crispy artichokes were light and crispy and the pesto/ lemon sauce was yummy. We even dipped our bread in it! Our dishes were great too: Cavatelli Pesto and Orechiette pugliese! We didn't leave any leftovers! Sausage was so flavorful. Pesto sauce was light and fresh. If we had more room, we would have tried the dessert! This restaurant is cashless and also adds at 20% service tax, which our waiter kindly pointed out.
I was thinking of chicken parm all week. I get these cravings out of nowhere. Eater recommended Capa Tosta so I made a reservation. Parking was challenging. Metro was too far away. Eventually I found a spot...I was concerned as most of the houses and businesses had bars on the windows. I head into the restaurant. First impression is how small it is inside. Not a cut, just an observation. I would say it has a cozy kind of place good for a date or family dinner out. I grab a seat at the bar. I already looked at the wine selection so I decided on a glass of the house red. The menu has a lot of good choices but I ultimately decided on the chicken parmesan with pasta and sauce. It's a Thursday at dinnertime and I'm alone in the restaurant...maybe later things will pick up. My food arrives and smells delicious. I order a wine refill and I'm enjoying the tasty sauce and tender chicken. It's two tenders vs a chicken breast but no matter. Solid quality and taste. After a while I pay the check and I'm out. This is the second restaurant recommended by de.eater.com that has been in a rough neighborhood. I'll be doing my research elsewhere. When you're worried about where you parked and whether the car will be there when you're done eating it makes the dining experience less enjoyable.
I came to Capa Tosta for a friend's graduation celebration and was really impressed! We had the entire upstairs space to ourselves for the evening with two large tables to accommodate everyone. There was a bar upstairs as well, although it was really just a space for serving water and taking beverage orders since all drinks were made downstairs and brought up to us. The menu had a great selection and they even had gluten free penne pasta! Yay! I started with an aperol spritz and then shared brussel sprouts and truffle fries with some of my tablemates. Holy moley, the brussel sprouts were amazing. Dare I say, some of the best I've ever had? The truffle fries were good too, very flavorful and a nice shoestring cut. I got the gluten free penne with vodka sauce and chicken as my entree. It was well prepared and was a generous serving size (enough for leftovers). It's always a little questionable ordering gluten free pasta because if it is overcooked even just a little it will quickly fall apart. The dish came out perfectly al dente. They knew exactly what they were doing! I also ordered an espresso martini for after the meal but unfortunately, it never came. I'm thinking it must have just gotten lost in the shuffle - it was a huge party after all. Overall, this was a great meal surrounded by great people! The owner even came up to say hi and he was super nice (and actually Italian which is always a plus in my book). Saluti!
Super cozy, warm, and a great Italian place to check out. I have friends over the town and they are craving good Italian food. It was absolutely amazing flavor. It's not factory-made salt and spicy flavor, it's a well-trained or friend's mom's awesome meal for loved ones. A group of six ordered 12 entrees. That's how it is, and we're stuffed, but we can't stop trying more and more. I strongly recommend to people who really want to have home-cook style Italian meals.
Great service w a smile. Nice vibe. Just a great small Italian restaurant. Would def recommend to anyone. Especially when the mood hits. So funny, sopranos playing on the tv at the bar. Gotta love it.
Came here last week for dinner before a work party at hook hall; we made reservations online and had to push it back due to crazy DC traffic and as others reported the person on the phone was quite rude; but that's the only complaint. Not sure why they were so rude as this place only had one other party inside on a Saturday night... this place is intimate (read small; but they may have an additional room or additional space we were at the main dining when you walk in. If it's a cold night you're going to feel it as there is no double door. Aldo was our server and he was incredible! We got the espresso martini and lemonchello spritz to start and the martini changed my life!! Aldo was attentive, knowledgeable, and recommended a seafood dish our friend absolutely raved about!! Our food came out quickly and tasted delicious!!
What a fantastic little restaurant. It does not have a vast menu, but what they have is cooked perfectly and homemade, yes, I asked. We had the meatballs for an appetizer, along with the antipasto. Everybody likes their meatballs a little differently. I love these meatballs. They were great. My nephew had the chicken Parm. He's 16 220 pounds and loves to eat; he cannot finish the portion. My wife is a vegetarian and had the eggplant Parm, which is under the appetizer. It was perfect for her, and she loved it. And she's a PITA. I went with the recommendation of the veal tortellini, and I'm so glad I did. our waiter who is also the bartender was fantastic of course I forgot his name, but watching all the waiters work together nonstop throughout the night was amazing.
Was greeted immediately as I came in. Staff was friendly. I requested to sit outside and they obliged. What a beautiful evening to out and about. On my way to Victoria was very helpful. I ordered their anti pasto and their pesto shrimp. All the Food was delicious. For the items I couldn't finish, they packed them up for me in a to go box. Very cute and inviting restaurant. Priced as well as you can expect in a ritzy area and well worth it: read more
Absolutely delicious Italian food!! We were suggested to come here for dinner by a friend and they did not disappoint! The staff - so friendly and attentive The meatballs - a must get The Chicken Parm - a must get The bread - super soft and a delicious starter at the table with ingredients ready for you to make your own dip The Rigatoni Alla Norma - this was pretty loaded with veggies so if you're into that, get it! I liked the chicken parm more though The drink/wine selection - huge selection and the Pinot Grigio was just what the doctor ordered! Inside it was super cute -- there's plenty of seating and they had the AC on which was so nice on a hot summer day Outside -- a great sized patio out front if you're looking to dine outside somewhere! Definitely check out Capa Tosta if you're in Columbia Heights! read more

We placed an order via their website for delivery at 5:45 PM. At 6:20 PM I called them to inquire about the status. They said a driver had picked it up. At 6:23 PM they called me back to say they were wrong and a driver had yet to be assigned - estimated delivery for 7:29 PM. Now, that all is ok. Online ordering and delivery is tricky! And I really appreciated how they called me back and updated me with different info and apologized. That's really great customer service! So why 2 stars? The food. Obviously, if you're ordering delivery, you should not expect thing things to all be hot and at an equal temp. So no issues there. In fact, most of the food traveled pretty well. But $28 for the "Feast" (a charcuterie plate) and all we got was those teeny tiny triangles of cheese? Please please tell me they messed up and gave us a "Nibble" order instead? (Also, i then def want my money back.) And it wasn't even good or unique cheese and meat. We, honestly, had better in our fridge. It was a HUGE letdown. $8 for "garlic bread"? What part of that was "garlic bread"? Pretty much zero garlic and a little slice of some cheese thrown on top. It was inedible. The fritto (fried calamari, shrimp, and zucchini) was tasty. The lemon aoli was delicious! The chopped salad had a nice kick to it. Fresh. Great dressing. Worth the cost? Eh. In sum, I appreciated the call back re: delivery. But will we order from here again? Highly likely not. Maybe we mis-ordered and should've gone for other dishes (like pasta and entrees)? But I can say for what we got and what it cost (and it being nearly 2 hrs after we requested), hard pass and not something we'd get again. read more

Tuesday 5:30 reservation and the place was empty. Had an early show at 9:30 Club (10 min walk) so we were happy. Ordered a Sazerac and it was tasty but light. Had Fritto Misto and the portion was huge. Lots of fried veggies, calamari and such. Did find a hot pepper but could have had more of those. Daughter and SIL ordered Caesar salads, again good portions and crisp. For meal I had the Bolognese, SIL the Cavetelli and daughter Ravioli. All good portions and fresh and tasty. Really loved my comboniation but the lobster crab ravioli was fantastic. Would give it five stars but the prices were too high, even for DC. read more

Capa Tosta is a nice looking neighborhood Italian fine dining bistro with a fancy patio and nice ambiance. We had to order take-out because they said they were booked solid for the entire evening even though we arrived right after opening and the place was completely empty. Um, ok. Perhaps we were refused service because we were dressed casually? Last time I checked my money was still green. Portions of food were small and absolutely tasteless. For $30 I got an appetizer sized portion of tortellini (exactly 12, I counted) in an alfredo sauce(?) that had the taste and consistency of glue. It would be easy to still be hungry after ordering this dish as a main course. Gnocchi tasted like someone cut up Pillsbury dough and tossed it in some tomato soup. Bolognese sauce was also completely bland, if it was Chef prepared I suspect his last name was Boyardee. Fritto Misto calamari was decent but nothing special. I think their food looks a lot better on their Instagram than it does when it's actually served, maybe they can give me the Instagram food instead. Overall, my reaction is meh. I just don't understand where all these rave reviews came from, it's like they ate somewhere completely different. Whatevs. Capa Tosta is perhaps a small step up from Olive Garden but definitely not even close to Filomena which is where I will go from now on. read more

We braved the patio on a blustery Saturday night and enjoyed almost everything about this cute spot. The appetizers were excellent - we enjoyed the meatballs and crispy artichokes. The mains took a bit and the portions were quite small but tasty - lasagne and cacio e pepe. The service was great - and the one thing that took us aback was the price of my husbands drinks. It was cold so he originally ordered a hot toddy. The bartender suggested a boozy cappuccino. We didn't taste much booze but it was cold so he had more than one ;) when we got the check we found that each of his drinks was $4 for the cappuccino plus $12 for the shot of whatever was in it, making that a pretty pricey weak drink. Despite the drink miscommunication we'd come back as the food was great :) read more
I celebrated my birthday here. I am giving it a 3 out of 5. There were a couple of missteps is the reason for the 3. Overall many of the dishes we ordered were good and tasty. The customer service at the restaurant was good but over the phone before I got there was alittle shaky. The person over the phone gave me a lecture on changing my reservation due to no fault of my own. Now the food. We ordered the truffle fries, Brussels, artichokes, some cocktails and a bottle of red wine. The Brussels, artichokes were really good. The bolognese for the main dish was okay thought it was underseasoned. I was waiting to order the cannoli. Ordered the cannoli after dinner and thought it lacked sweetness, the cream had no flavor. If you want a quick neighborhood spot to grab a drink I think it would be okay! read more

First time at Capa Tosta and it was delicious!! We could tell it was a familia owned small business by the attention to detail on each plate and quality of service/food. We received complimentary fresh bread with olive oil and cracked black pepper. The Crispy Artichoke tasted delicious with the fresh green sauce. The pastas were tasty and perfectly al dente. If you're a Nutella lover, you have to try the bombolini dessert. It literally melts in your mouth! We also got the orange sorbet which was so refreshing. We will definitely be back for more! read more
The chicken parm with vodka sauce was unreal and the potion was very generous. I was there alone so I sat at the bar and all the staff are very friendly. I lived a block away for 2 years but the storefront is so unsuspecting so took me a while to go inside read more
My friend and I stumbled upon Capa Tosta early on a Saturday night while walking through Pleasant Plains. We were seated right away and there was only one other couple in there since it was early (just before 5pm) and it filled out a bit more by the time we left around 6:30. The crispy artichoke appetizer was delicious! It was lightly fried and drizzled with a refreshing lemon pesto sauce. I got the Orechiette pugliese- homemade pasta with sausage and broccoli rabe in a white wine sauce. My pasta was quite oily and wasn't as flavorful as I expected. I would like to try something else next time as they have a lot of great options. My friend really enjoyed her Cavatelli Pesto with shrimp. The pesto was similar to the that which was drizzled over the crispy artichokes and it was light but flavorful. The prices are a little bit on the expensive side but if you're looking for a more formal Italian dinner- this is a great place to check out! With a fully stocked bar and a great wine selection it would make for a great date spot. read more

Unfortunately, I don't recommend this restaurant. The food, as my partner aptly described, is "lazy". The kale in the salad still had ribs and was not massaged; just hunks of rough kale with seemingly store bought pre crumbled blue cheese. Both of our pastas were over cooked and flaccid, and the sauces were shallow. The bread to start was also weird. When you had the attention of the servers, they were nice. Otherwise staff seemed overwhelmed with tables. Ended the meal with an Uber to Reveler's Hour. read more

This Italian restaurant is the perfect cozy date spot - we loved the meatballs and mushroom cacio e pepe. Both were seasoned well and very tasty. Great for comfort food and the price point was definitely reasonable for the portion size. We shared the meatballs and pasta for two people and left feeling full. read more

Came to Capa Tosta for a date night dinner and we were blown away! The restaurant is cozy and casual but still feels romantic. The service is also phenomenal and our server, Arturo, went above and beyond to make us feel special! The drinks we got were extremely fun and had a smokey element to them--I had a Limoncello Spritz and my boyfriend got the Tony Soprano "Negroni." As for food, we ordered the fritto misto, paccheri bolognese, and the lobster and crab ravioli. Everything was a hit! I loved the fried brocollini that was incorporated into the fritto misto. Both pastas were cooked perfectly with a great bite. The bolognese had a deliciously classic home-cooked feel to it. The ravioli was an absolute star. My boyfriend usually doesn't go for seafood pastas and he said it was his favorite dish of the night. For dessert, we got the bombolini and chocolate truffle. Both were great, but the bombolini is really a must if you come here! Overall, I had a great experience and I'm really looking forward to coming back. read more
We stumbled upon Capa Tosta driving through the neighborhood. Overall we absolutely LOVED IT! The ambience is snug and welcoming, the music was fun and up beat. drinks: We ordered the house red wine which was delicious and an espresso martini which was excellent! It had additional tiramisu liquor and was well made! Apps: we ordered fried artichoke and bruschetta. The fried artichoke was good, nothing extraordinary but the bruschetta was really nice. It came with burrata on top which was a nice touch. Dinner: ordered the eggplant parm (as a meal) and asked the owner to modify the gnocchi burrata to make with vodka sauce (which they kindly did despite it being a busy Saturday night). The eggplant literally melted in your mouth and the gnocchi was so soft! There was a side of Italian hot sauce that was excellent, something we had never had before. Dessert: cannoli and bombolini. The cannoli was to die for! Probably one of the best we've had and the bombolini was so yummy. The serving size for the latter was large so took the rest home. Overall a super cute date night, reasonably priced and excellent food & service! read more
